Vision

Our vision is to increase authentic expression, respect, and humanity.

Goals

1. 1.We are sponsoring our 37th "Celebration of Youth" essay in the spring of 2025. This is open to students in grades 4 to 9 in DCPS and DCPCS . Between 60 and 75 students are awarded prizes, and awardees come from schools all across Washington, DC. Our goal is to promote honest expression, caring for yourself and others, and improve writing skills. We valus self reflection.
2. 2.On a regular basis, we want to provide cat and dog food to pets in families who are food insecure. The Northwest Food Pantry feeds 300 families each week; many of these families have cats and dogs. We also want to give regularly to a 16 feral cat colony that is watched over. We learned of these situations in December of 2024 and want to be part of the solution for these animals.
3. 3.We need a much better website. We want our website redesigned and to feature the success of young people. We also need to post regularly on Facebook. We need quality, dedicated support.
